Biography
Hwang Duk-sam was a Korean Independence Army member during the resistance struggle against Japan, and he learned how to use explosives from the Hungarians. Hwang was later caught and jailed for selling substandard products, but Hwang and Chu Sang-ok were both busted out of prison by their fellow resistance fighters. They were assigned to assassinate Japanese general Kawaguchi Mamoru and businessman Kang In-guk on 7 November 1933, and Hwang, Chu, and Ahn Okyun were sent to Seoul. Chu later disappeared, but Ahn and Hwang were resolved to carry out their mission, with the Korean sympathizer Kimura helping them. Hwang blew up the wrong car, as the targets were warned by double agent Yem Sek-jin, and he was shot several times while clinging to the back of the targets' vehicle in an attempt to throw a grenade. His body fell into a store, and he inadvertently blew himself up as the targets sped away.
